The Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) confirms that it will host Bangladesh for a series of three One Day International (ODI) matches from November 06 – 11 in the United Arab Emirates.
The three-match ODI series will begin on the 6th of November, with the 2nd and 3rd ODIs scheduled to be played on the 9th and 11th of November, respectively, in the United Arab Emirates. The exact venue is yet to be finalized.
These three ODIs, along with three T20Is and two Tests, were originally part of Afghanistan’s Future Tour Program (FTP) and scheduled for July-August this year. However, the series was postponed due to extreme heat in the UAE and India, where ACB usually hosts its home events.
Following extensive discussions, both boards have agreed to proceed with just the ODI leg, which will be crucial in both teams’ preparations for the ICC Champions Trophy which is set to take place in Pakistan in February next year.
AfghanAtalan recently secured a historic 2-1 series victory over South Africa and are set to tour Zimbabwe in December for an all-format series against the home side.
Series Schedule:
Date | Format | Venue |
Wed, Nov 06 | 1st ODI | UAE |
Sat, Nov 09 | 2nd ODI | UAE |
Mon, Nov 11 | 3rd ODI | UAE |
